  • Bacterial speck of tomatoes is caused by the bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst).
  • The bacterium can be introduced by the use of Pst-contaminated seeds.
  • Therefore, detection of Pst in seeds of tomato is common.
  • For the detection of Pst, seeds are first soaked in buffer.
  • Then a stomacher is used for the release of bacteria from the seeds.
  • The bacteria are concentrated by centrifugation.
  • Then dilution plating on two semi-selectice media KBZ and KBBC is performed.
  • Suspected colonies are transferred to KB and finally identified by PCR or a pathogenicity assay.
  • Pst forms small, flat and pink-colored colonies on KBZ after ca. 5 days.
  • For detailed information about Duchefa’s Phytopathological media have a look at our specialized brochure about this topic.
  • Brochure can be found at the “Brochure section” at the home page of this website.
